bump ok so now i have done a little work on the car i have changed the plugs, ignition coils, wires, and changed most of the vacuum lines! and the vacuum is still at -6. so i was thinking maybe it was the wastegate, so i pintched off the vacumm line that runs to the wastegate and when the line...

Bump Well the strange thing is that the gauge never reads to hot it never over heats it's just sometimes bubbles into the resv. And in the upper hose it's very odd... The only other thing I can think of is the car had a intake cone right before the maf maybe it's reading way to much air cause...
